Hits #2

Since the start of this blog on Feb 7, there have been nearly 27,000 hits. The biggest traffic was on Feb. 14, when there were nearly 4,000 hits (the link from the Wall Street Journal obviously caused this spike). Today is going to have the 2nd most traffic with over 2,500 hits in 20 hours so far.

The page with by far the most reads has been the Disclosure and Due Diligence “op ed”. I’m surprised at the traffic to some fairly dense notes on replication (which I’ve had in inventory for some time, but never been sure what to do with them.)

Does RealClimate post their hits? I sure they will/do if their hits are higher than here. If they aren’t, then . . . hmmm. Maybe they’ll use PCA first, or a proxy of some kind.

Steve’s comment: Much as I’d like to think otherwise, I’m sure that they get a lot more hits. If you look at the URL that Lubos Motl showed on the “blog stock market”, which measures hits and links, they look like an order of magnitude higher. Having said that, I’m more than pleased with the hits and interest here.

Steve, couldn’t you sleep with the devil a bit more and get some $$ for a better web site. I knew that the Swifties were not up to taking on George Soros when I saw how truly homemade and grassrootsy their original stuff was…but of course they did get the job done…
